I had the privilege to provided a keynote presentation on “Women and Global Trade” in New York City for the 2011 IWEC Conference and Awards, hosted by the Manhattan Chamber of Commerce.

International Women’s Entrepreneurial Challenge (IWEC) is an initiative of the Barcelona Chamber of Commerce, in partnership with the Chamber of Commerce of Manhattan (New York) and FICCI/FLO (the Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry Ladies Organization) supported by the US Department of State. IWEC was established in 2006 with the first IWEC Conference held in Barcelona in 2007 featuring three awardees from India.

The mission of IWEC is to develop a global business network for successful women business owners, helping them gain and expand access to international markets.
